Hi all,

In trying to view Kirstie Alley's Fat Actress on Yahoo, I received the
following message:

"The media you are trying to access does not have a stream that matches your
default settings. Try running Media Helper again."

When I click to run it again, nothing happens. What am I missing here?

I'm running XP-Home, with SP2 factory installed.

Thanks everyone!

Lois

Sounds like Yahoo is streaming in QuickTime or Real Player format and you do
not have the correct one installed on your PC.
